Source: New York Post

The US military removed some aircraft from an English air base for the second time in as many months Monday following a threat from Iran. The report by the Wall Street Journal didn’t specify whether the threat to the RAF Mildenhall base, located about 80 miles northeast of London, was imminent or more general, but two refueling tankers en route to Mildenhall were diverted to Germany Monday morning while other tankers were moved off the base later in the day. An aircraft of the USAF 100th Air Refueling Wing sits at RAF Mildenhall airbase near Mildenhall, Britain, on Tuesday.
